If manning doesn't open this weekend, I'll be there making a fool of myself. Are they using the park under...that one chair...haha.. as opposed to the rail garden at the top of...that other chair?
yeah, I'm not too familiar with my baker geography...

You might be able to. I heard they were gonna put it at the bottom of 7 so that people who dont ski or snowboard could come watch. Chair 7 is the chair right next to the lower lodge.

I heard they were gonna have this every saturday...or every other saturday. But the best part is that they are building a wall. It was be just like the ones a Mammoth or Whistler but way smaller (like 6 or 8 feet or something).

hmm.....when it says under 16, does that actually mean 15 and under? im assuming it does, but usually when people list the divisions, they'll put like 16 and under, or 15 and under, not under 16...


and im not sure which catagory im entering, most likely amature, considering im not pro, and im not "under 16", i am 16... that confuses me, ahhh

By the way they worded it, it sounds like there is going to be a
Ski division
Snowboard division
Open division (skiers and snowboarder?)
Am division (skiers and snoboarders?)
and probably a womens ski and snowboard division

i think it's stuipd that if you do the open you have to do what it says. like the rail or wahtever. they should have a couple different rails and where you can choose which to hit

Soo when you go to register you don't choose between skier or snowboarder, you just choose open or am. are they trying to run skiers with the snowboarders? cuz that shit just doesn't work.

sooo much powder, i can't value any person who competes in this comp instead of shredding the gnar. today was freaking amazing. so amazing, that i would never step foot/ski in a park again in exchange for the chance to relive it.
